Excerpt from The Rebel, Vol. 3: December, 1918 Waiving the question of the causal relation between the art and the philosophy of any age, the paper traced a parallel evolution of philosophy and fiction ceased to be one. So long as men thought first of their gods and their nationality there was none of our romantic and sentimental writing. It was the coming individualism which heralded that mode Of composition - as it appeared in the Alexandrian age, only to be obscured in darkness - until after the night, daylight came again in the temple of literature, and behold! The ancient gods still sitting in the repose of their unchangeable perfection. Only the worshippers are new, a little strange to their surroundings and uncertain Of themselves, yet instinctively bowing to a knowledge which they have not invented and a beauty which they have not created.
